review 1: I'm not much for reading short stories but saw that this was kind of a prequel to City Falcon. The story was a bitter sweet tale of an American forced to blend in and become a trusted local after Iraq invaded Kuwait. The story of his love for a gay Arab man made me appreciate our western attitudes toward gay men which are far from good. Ms Faber did an excellent job of painting life in the middle east with its desert beauty and strict taboos. I'm more than ready to delve into City Falcon.
review 2: I read this sometime this month to give me a sort of "background" before the novel, City Falcon, is released (since I was intrigued with the blurb of the novel). I know that it's a Bittersweet Romance title, but since the "event" happened in the past, and Hunter
... more"tells" us, readers, rather than us reading the event as it happens, it lacks the emotion for me, even if I find Hunter intriguing as character. Because of that, it gives me enough curiosity to read the novel and finds out what will happen to Hunter next. less
